I have been wanting to watch A Serbian Film ever since I heard very disturbing things about it. This is definitely one of those films that you have to be in the mood to watch. If you actually want to watch A Serbian Film, then you must be in a really fucked up mood. A Serbian Film‘s content is insanely controversial, but the entire cast/crew make the content work. You can’t take this film at face value, because it is much more than that. A Serbian Film is an erotic thriller that is meant for audiences to observe some fucked up shit that is going on in Serbia.
While I am in that small percentage of people who praise A Serbian Film for everything that it accomplished, the film was universally panned across the board and banned in many countries. I was grossed out in certain scenes, it was just a little much. One scene in particular, called the “Newborn Porn” scene, features a young woman giving birth to a newborn baby. The baby is then taken from the mother and fucked by an older man on camera. While it is described much more graphic than it is shown on screen, it is definitely still equally worse.
PROS:
- Interesting look on the pornography industry.
- Serbian plotical statement.
- Perfect performances from two main actors.
- Milo’s giant penis.
CONS:
- Controversial content/themes.
- NSFW.
- Newborn Porn!
- Very little English (only for people who have problems with subtitles)
SCORE: 9.0 / 10
